AUSTRALIA-BRITAIN-MINING-COMPANY-RIO TINTO-BHP
A handout photo released by Rio Tinto, shows Rio Tinto chief executive officer (CEO) Tom Albanese (L) and BHP Billiton CEO Marius Kloppers (R) chatting after the two mining giants agreed a joint venture covering their Western Australia iron ore operations in a deal expected to save the firms at least 10 billion US dollars, in Melbourne on June 5, 2009. The non-binding agreement means assets in the vast region will be shared equally between the two companies, and involves BHP handing over 5.8 billion dollars for Rio equity. The deal was announced as Australian and British media reported that Rio's planned 19.5 billion dollar tie-up with China's Chinalco had collapsed.
